"From the first day that I met Dave for an estimate to the last, he was extremely professional, knowledgeable and willing to go the extra mile to make sure I was 100% happy with his work. He is very pleasant to be around and I am very grateful I have found someone to do any jobs I may have in the future. He came to work on my house everyday on time and worked consistently until the job was 100% done. No cutting corners and extremely honest. I took all his suggestions on colors for him to paint and boy am I so happy! He turned my once dated house into something I am proud to now call home. Dave also finished AHEAD of schedule and gave me his full attention because he only works one job at a time. He also didn't ask for 1 penny until I was 100% happy with his work! It is a rarity to find such a hard working, meticulous, contracter that made every step of the process such a pleasure! Will be hiring Dave Lynch in the future for my other various needs! Thanks again Dave!"

FAQs for painting projects in Athens, PA

You’ll need 1 gallon of paint per 350 square feet of coverage. Typical amounts per room size:

  • Small room (200-400 sq. ft.): 1 gallon.

  • Medium-sized (400-800 sq. ft.): 2-4 gallons.

  • Large (800-1,200 sq. ft.): 5-gallons or more.

Painters usually make $20 per hour on average or about $40,000 per year. Independent contractors might pocket a little more. However, they must charge for overhead, such as vehicles, equipment, insurance, marketing and association dues.

Specialty painting, like murals and trompe l’oeil, costs $40 to $50 per hour. Paint might range between $75 to $90. The professional’s skill and experience are also determining factors. While a freelance artist might charge $25 to $30 an hour, a very skilled professional might charge $80 or more. Some might also charge $60 or more for a consultation.

Trompe l'oeil creates a realistic image or optical illusion in three dimensions. Murals are composed on a wall of any size. These two projects vary in price, with a trompe l'oeil typically costing more because of its complexity. Both are considered specialty projects.
